What I made with 2 fat quarters of material

With material not being so cheap (at least if you are furiously sewing away), I thought I'd show you all what I made out of 2 fat quarters (18" x 21") of material plus a few zippers and some craft fuse.  First up, I made a utility apron.


I had enough material that I lined the pocket. The material you see on the inside of the pocket is also the same material I used for the straps. I have a tutorial I'll post later on so you can make your own apron out of 1 fat quarter.

Next I made myself a boxed cosmetic bag from the same materials and a 9" zipper. I added craft fuse to both layers to make the bag sturdier.


It is lined with the same material as the inside of the apron pocket.
The last think I made was a small zippered bag. I used the left overs from both materials to make it along with a black zipper. I lined both materials with craft fuse (Pellon 808). I should have used a lighter interface for the pocket as two layers of material + craft fuse through a small opening = grrrrr....Fortunately the bag turned out cute though.
